Electron build does not work (and hasn't been updated in ages)
The dashboard is built with Electron and Vue.js. It uses electron-builder for deployment.
See this for more information on Vue CLI Plugin Electron Builder
Install Node.js through NVM
nvm install 14.16.0
Verify the versions. Notice NPM is installed with Node.js
node -v
npm -v
Install Vue.js CLI
npm i -g @vue/cli
npm i -g @vue/cli-init
Install dependencies:
npm install
on macs you may need to run the following command afterwords : node node_modules/electron/install.js
When running as a web application, Vue does not have access to the file system. It enumerates all data from a backend server accessed through the Novellia SDK.
npm run serve
Execute npm run build and copy paste dist to a server. Then figure out how to setup Caddy or some other web server.
npm run electron:serve
The Novellia dashboard should now appear in a window.
Since Electron is a wrapper on Chromium, the full suite of web development tools is available, just hit ctrl + shift + I.
Generate icons from a file named icon.jpg
